For Anyone, Who Thinks Aromanticism Isn't A Thing:

as far as I can tell, fiction podcasts protagonists generally fall into two or more of these three categories:

Has a mysterious past (1)

Immortal in some capacity (2)

Queer in canon (3)

Examples:

Jon sims (2+3)

Juno steel (1+3)

The interviewer (1+2)

Ed Tucker (2+3)

Cecil Palmer (1+2+3)

In this essay, I will-

MALEVOLENT SPOILERS UNDER UP TO EPISODE 26

wow Jon is back!

you can't imagine how happy was

also wtf Arthur, can you hear yourself

when he was going about some people being better than others, i couldn't help but think that of course he would say that as someone living in the 30s

but still

i like how the roles had turned

jon being the voice of reason there

i was quite relieved when arthur finally admitted to being wrong

finally

well i'm going to listen a bit more

i also want to add, that for a couple episodes now i feel like Arthur no longer be in the 30s anymore

there was something about the house of that family, that i don't remember the name of, being much older than it should be

also Arthur talking all the time about finally going to his place etc. feels a bit like forshadowing

idk, but it would be fun if they (Arthur & Jon) ended up in the present day (more or less)

gotta listen now

when i grow up i want to be myself

Won’t you please come back to me?

Womennnn let’s go

Arthur Lester

Jonathan Sims

Rudyard Funn

idk, it's pretty much a tie between the above and Jet Siquliak

Ace week starts on Sunday, the 22nd of October: that's a week tomorrow!

Fiction podcasts have a wealth of acespec characters, but we all started somewhere, and I'm curious! So, in the notes, tags, or replies, who's:

The first ace character you encountered in a fiction podcast?

The most recent ace character you encountered in a fiction podcast?

Your favourite ace character from a fiction podcast, if any?

Everything in Kaos is so colorful and kitsch and strongly influenced by David LaChapelle's photography, and then there's the Underworld, with its nouvelle vague black and white, fantastic brutalist architecture and that Soviet rationalist aesthetic that I absolutely adore!
